What drives your life?
Sunday, December 11, 2011
i can feel that we're not as close as we used to be. because of work which takes up more than half of my time now & other commitments, my time with you will always be compromised. missed being yr grocery shopping buddy when we'll take slow yet bearable walks back home with all th heavy bags, missed having breakfast with you everyday, missed singing worship songs in the morning at yr fav spot.. but thank you mum for showing that u do want us to spend time w each other, be it as short as 15 min having a quicky breakfast on a weekend morn. I appreciate it.
because you girls mean much to me hence compromising my time, the meeting venue (be it how inconvenient it can be), is something i'm willing to do. <3
My dear C1 girls. Missing Jolene, Gladys & Margaret.

It happened yet again. I'm supposed to set some time aside tonight to actually do some "Life Prioritizing" session.
Knowing your purpose focuses your life. It concentrates your effort & energy on what's important. You become effective by being selective.
Read this from the booklet of Purpose Driven Life. This section on the importance of knowing your purpose in life strikes me yet again in a refreshing way. & I realised all this while, I'm not focused at all. I've never really sit down to highlight what are my priorities which, eventually resulted in me slotting everything (literally) into the "Important" category. Everybody's impt, everything's impt. Before I know it, I seemed to have taken on too many commitments -more than I can handle. So much so that Im tired & stretched, relationships are affected & i find myself feeling lost & unaccomplished.
People who don’t know their purpose try to do too much—and that causes stress, fatigue, and conflict.
I know it isn't working, but I've never really done anything about it. Thinking that as long as I've breath in me, I'll go the miles. But no, it's not the right way.
And yes, I'll really need to sit myself down alone & do some serious prioritizing.
If you want your life to have impact, focus it!
